OpforMaster 0 Posted June 10, 2007 Ive owned ArmA since the German dvd release and have never had so many problems trying to connect to mp games. I recently made some major hardware upgrades to my mobo and ram. I did a fresh install of XP all the drivers etc and a couple benchmarking apps and ArmA. i started out with the stock 1.05 patch that i had been running before the upgrade and would always crash to desktop when i tried to connect to a game. I uninstalled and reinstalled arma to 1.05, still no dice. i then tried eraseing the MP cache file as suggested in another thread, no go. I can play single player just fine and decided to see if i could connect to any MP game in any game. I loaded up the latest americas army sf build and connected to a couple of games and played through no problem. So I know the hardware is ok. I then patched arma to 1.07, I dont crash when I connect now i get 0 kb mission files that never load and if I do get a real mission file it wont go past the startup map screen. Any Ideas?
